Fred, you are not forgotten. We had some special and enjoyable times years ago. You were a very good to me, made me laugh, and, especially, you were such a caring, fine and loving man. I've thought of you often over the years. Til we meet again. Rae

Fred was one of the finest men I've ever known. The entire Lenas family grieves at the passing of Fred and this sorrowful news. Although we were not still married, we remained very good friends. He was kind, generous, intelligent and extremely funny. He enjoyed playing cards with mother and her friends, and my father loved him like a son. That was the Fred I knew and loved. He leaves behind a treasured legacy in his children and grandchildren of whom he spoke of so proudly and lovingly.
May he rest in eternal, blissful, sleep, resting peacefully in God's comfort and loving arms.
Respectfully with love,
Mary Sharon Lenas Mercer, family and friends.
